DS 3: Access / Proximity Keyless Entry and Start

This is a Keyless Entry and Starting system. It enables automatic vehicle locking/unlocking simply by detecting the electronic key.

As long as the driver has the electronic key on their person, the vehicle unlocks as they approach and locks when they walk away.

If the electronic key is present in an area between 2 and 7 m from the vehicle for more than 30 minutes, the system is deactivated to preserve the battery.

Key recognition zones:

Zone A: welcome lighting on approaching the vehicle (between 3 and 5 metres from the vehicle).

Zone B: automatic locking on leaving the vehicle (about 2 metres from the vehicle).

Zone C: automatic unlocking on approaching the vehicle (between 1 and 2 metres from the vehicle).

The automatic functions are configured via the Driving/Vehicle touch screen menu.

With the electronic key on their person, the driver can also lock and unlock their vehicle by pressing the retractable handles.

For more information on Retractable handles, refer to the corresponding section.
